What a lucky world!

Chapter 20: Meeting the Rich Sister...

"Brother Han, stop teasing me." Zhang Mu was stunned for a few seconds before reacting, "If I'm not mistaken, the prison is outside."

After saying that, Zhang Mu got out of the car directly, and sure enough, he saw the gate of the county prison.

"Hahahaha, I can't hide it from you." Old Han got out of the car with a smile.

Zhang Mu walked straight into the prison, and Lao Han hurriedly followed him. Then people got off the other carriages and followed them into the prison together.

"Hey, Brother Mu, tell me, how did you guess it?" After entering the cell, Old Han caught up with Zhang Mu and asked softly.

"It's simple. If you guys are going to go back straight after dealing with the Wang family, why bother with all this drama of imprisonment?" Zhang Mu glanced at the jailers and prisoners who were still unconscious from the smoke. "Besides, it's the middle of the night now, and the city gates are locked. Where else can you guys go, Brother Han? If the crime happens tomorrow, it will be even more difficult to leave the city."

"Think again, you put a lot of effort into jail, but it was all just a trick. Wait until you're released tomorrow, and then leave Wan'an County with a clear conscience."

"The cell is just an alibi."

"I said you were a smart kid..." Old Han looked at Zhang Mu with admiration, "You will achieve great things once you go up the mountain."

"It's much easier to work backwards after knowing the result." Zhang Mu shook his head, walked into his cell and locked it. "But Brother Han, even though that jailer is one of us, the other jailers might notice something unusual when they wake up tomorrow."

"If they report it, I'm afraid it won't be so easy for you and your brothers to get out."

"You're worrying too much." Old Han also locked his cell and said, "The county magistrate will naturally receive our identity information tomorrow. Of course, the people are fake, but the identities are real. He will release us immediately then."

Zhang Mu was curious, and Old Han didn't keep him in suspense. He said directly: "He is the personal attendant of the Yongning Prefecture governor. However, the real personal attendant is still a guest in the mountain stronghold..."

At this moment, there was a sudden commotion outside the cell. Zhang Mu took a look and heard Lao Han say, "It seems that the Wang family members we imprisoned have escaped. The government is now out looking for the gang of villains who attacked the Wang family..."

"It has nothing to do with us prisoners."

Zhang Mu: (;￢＿￢)
At least don’t admit that it was you who locked up the Wang family.

……

The next day.

As soon as the day broke, Zhang Mu saw a jailer running over in a panic, and with a smile on his face, he invited Lao Han and other people from Qianyuan Village to leave.

It seems that identity plays a role.

When Old Han left, he gave Zhang Mu a look, which seemed to mean that if the escort agency didn't save him, he would come to save him.

Of course, I have to follow him up the mountain.

Zhang Mu pretended to be still asleep and dealt with it in a daze.

Fortunately, Yuanwei Escort Agency did not disappoint Zhang Mu. Before noon, the jailer took Instructor Wang into the prison.

"Zhang Mu...are you okay?" Instructor Wang breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Zhang Mu.

"I'm fine. Thank you for your hard work, Master Wang." Zhang Mu walked out of the cell and bowed to Master Wang to express his gratitude.

"Don't thank me, it was Madam Zhuang." Instructor Wang said as he led Zhang Mu outside. "That little girl came to the escort agency this morning and told her about you. Madam Zhuang went straight to see the magistrate, but because a murder happened at the Wang family last night, she waited a long time before seeing the magistrate. Otherwise, she would have released you long ago."

Zhang Mu was stunned. He didn't expect that the boomerang from last night would hit him.

"Let's go back to the escort agency first." After leaving the prison, Instructor Wang pulled Zhang Mu into a carriage. The coachman drove the old horse pulling the carriage towards the escort agency.

……

Tea shop.

Li Er sat by the window, letting the hot tea beside him get cold, staring out the window with lifeless eyes.

The poison that the fox demon forced him to take was about to take effect, but he had not yet completed the task.

He just couldn't understand why an accounting clerk was like a street urchin, appearing and disappearing mysteriously all day long and nowhere to be found?
I clearly saw him go home yesterday, but he disappeared in the evening!!!
Damn, is this guy teaming up with the fox demon to play me?
Li Er looked at the crowds of people coming and going on the street outside the window and sighed softly.

He'd heard something had happened at the Wang family the previous night: gangsters had attacked them, leaving eight of their guards dead and their young master stabbed to death in the street. County Magistrate Zhou Youren was furious and ordered a countywide investigation into the murderer. As a result, he didn't dare inquire about Zhang Mu's whereabouts, lest he leave traces and be caught and used as a scapegoat for the Wang family incident. But he had secretly checked, and Zhang Mu hadn't returned to Wuren Lane or gone to the escort agency.

Oh shit!

Zhang Mu, where are you?

If you have the guts to offend the fox demon, then show up!
The more I think about it, the more anxious I become, and the more anxious I become, the angrier I get.

If he sees Zhang Mu again, he will follow him to the end!

Just as I was thinking this, a carriage passed by the teahouse and a gust of wind blew up the curtains.

A young man just raised his head...

See you again!
If you want to write about seeing each other again, you can't just write about seeing each other again.

I want to write about the wind that understands people’s wishes, and I want to write about the heart that is like the surface of a lake that is once again filled with waves.

I want to write about the busy streets and that casual glance.

If you want to write about seeing each other again, you can't just write about seeing each other again.

Write down the regrets of what you have missed and the vow of never letting go!

Li Er suddenly stood up, ran downstairs hurriedly, and chased after the carriage.

Zhang Mu! This time, I will never let you escape from my sight!

……

After returning to the escort agency, Instructor Wang was about to go and report to Madam Zhuang. Zhang Mu quickly told Instructor Wang that he had opened up another acupoint in prison.

The implication is: Since you are going anyway, remember to bring back the ten taels reward.

"You opened up another acupoint?" Even though he had expected it, Instructor Wang still couldn't hide his shock.

Didn’t he just open up the seventh acupoint? How come he opened up the eighth one in the blink of an eye?
It's only been eighteen days since this kid stepped into the outer courtyard, right?
Just open up the eight acupoints?

If you open up one more acupoint, you can reach the highest level!

How much longer will it take?
five days?

Or three days?
Is it difficult to enter the market? Not difficult at all?

Look at those wealthy families, a guard might be a low-ranking cultivator. It's just a matter of time.

But the more this happens, the more you can see the talent.

Instructor Wang lived in Wan'an County all his life, and the farthest place he had traveled to was Yongning Prefecture. According to storytellers, there were geniuses who reached the rank of rank in seven days, prodigies who reached the rank of rank in three days, and even top prodigies who reached the rank of rank in one day, who "heard about martial arts in the morning and became a rank official in the evening". But for Instructor Wang, they were basically just stories.

Reaching the pinnacle in one month was the limit of genius he knew in reality.

In Instructor Wang's memory, the last warrior who could reach the rank within a month was the former chief escort Zhuang Juxian. Even the current chief escort took two and a half months.

In fact, ever since Zhang Mu opened up the seventh acupoint, he had guessed that Zhang Mu could reach the level of cultivation within a month, but now he was certain that not only could Zhang Mu reach the level of cultivation within a month, he could even significantly advance the time!
The escort agency really found a treasure!
"Instructor Wang?" Zhang Mu called out to Instructor Wang who seemed a little absent-minded, and Instructor Wang finally reacted.

"Wait a minute, I'm going to see Madam Zhuang..." Instructor Wang patted Zhang Mu's shoulder heavily and turned to leave.

Zhang Mu watched Instructor Wang leave. He originally wanted to go to the kitchen to get some food to nourish his qi and blood, but after thinking about it, he decided to wait for Instructor Wang to come back. He found a cushion to sit on, and reactivated his innate martial arts to attack the last acupoint.

Not long after, Zhang Mu heard the footsteps of Instructor Wang and opened his eyes. Instructor Wang trotted over to him and said, "Come, follow me..."

"Mrs. Zhuang wants to see you!"
